BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iraqi footballer shot dead by fan

:eek:

It was either the article title for the thread or "HOLY *bleep*ING *bleep*!!!

I mean, I really have no coherent thoughts on this other than of being stunned that it has never actually happened (outside of movies, of course).

It is the logical extention of soccer hooligan illogic. I just can't imagine what it's like to put oneself in that mindset in the first place.

Not the logical extension of living in a war torn country overrun by Americans and split along religious lines?

Seriously, you've just mugged yourself off.

I saw this on the United forums yesterday.. it's such a disgrace to the game. The Iraqi's had said that the matches had given some sort of normalcy to the region..now some dumb fuck has gone and done this.

It pisses me off quite a bit.. wtf are these idiots doing? First the cricket incident and now this.. the blood of innocents must weigh heavy.

Almost the same way I felt about Joe Dumars for trading away Chauncey Billups for Allen Iverson.

Really though, thats pretty awful. The mental capacity of a tick.

Oh my.
er...
I really have no idea how to respond to this. What a horrible, horrible thing.

This is horrible alright...
I think the situation at Iraq is slightly better, but seeing this i can say that it is still a messed up place.
